I don't know what happened to this band in particular, they never were that good neither though, but they used to be decent that's for sure (for example their album "Whoracle", which I sold for regrettable reasons), and now they became almost Metalcore. And before you all "In Flames" fanatics start spitting in my face let me explain a little more; Metalcore is a form of Melodic Death Metal which was created for Hardcore fans that wanted their genre to be more aggressive, so more o less is what In Flames stands for now, just with some complex guitar solos.

This album is just a matter of perspective. You could look at it like 'This is absolute garbage.' OR you can look at it like 'Proud of In Flames for changing their style, it takes guts, even though this wasn't my favorite album of theirs.' BUT it is all a matter of perspective and taste.

this sounds absolutely nothing like Dark Tranquility. It isn't fit to lick the toes if the weakest DT album either. It's a thoroughly God-awful album from beginning to end irrespective of the band's history.

Probably you have not listened enough of Scanadivian Metal or did not know what the hell they were doing when you were listening. You got to work harder !

Says the person that just gave one if the most superficial and incorrect descriptions of metalcore I've ever seen who clearly thinks all metalcore is KSE clones

I don't know how old you are but I suspect I was listening to In Flames and Dark Tranquility before you were even a teenager. But please, carry on making baseless personal remarks as a way of qualifying your bad analyses.

Their only album that deserves to be called underrated tbh... All the others have been judged quite accurately. Well, I don't like Clayman as much as the average fella but I do understand why people love it.
